Overview

Syslog settings in zMan Director allow administrators to configure a syslog server for managed zTC devices.

Syslog configuration can be used to send device log information to a centralized logging server for monitoring, troubleshooting, and operational review.

---

Syslog Configuration

Syslog settings allow administrators to define where device log information should be sent.

The configuration may include:

• Syslog server address
• Port
• Protocol
• Log level or logging behavior

Available fields may vary depending on firmware version and deployment configuration.

---

Centralized Logging

Using a syslog server helps administrators collect logs from managed zTC devices in one location.

Centralized logging may help with:

• Troubleshooting device issues
• Reviewing system behavior
• Monitoring device activity
• Supporting audit or operational review workflows

---

Applying Syslog Settings

Syslog settings may be applied to:

• Individual zTC devices
• Groups of zTC devices

This allows administrators to standardize logging configuration across managed endpoints.

---

Notes

• Syslog settings depend on network reachability between the zTC device and the syslog server.
• Firewall rules may need to allow syslog traffic.
• Incorrect syslog configuration may prevent logs from reaching the intended server.
• Syslog settings should be tested before broad deployment.
